Apache Iceberg connector details
The Apache Iceberg connector materializes Estuary collections into Iceberg tables for large-scale analytics and lakehouse architectures. It orchestrates Spark jobs on AWS EMR Serverless (or another configured compute backend) to merge incoming changes, ensuring tables stay continuously up to date.
- Materializes Estuary collections into Apache Iceberg tables for open table formats
- Orchestrates Spark jobs on AWS EMR Serverless to process updates
- Supports hard deletes for accurate CDC replication or soft deletes for cost savings
- Compatible with AWS Glue, S3 Tables, and Snowflake Open Catalogs via REST APIs
- Configurable sync schedules to balance performance and cost
